James I really enjoyed the video. I don't usually watch a video that long but you kept my interest the whole way. Lot's of good tips. I especially enjoyed the knife sheath. That is a thing of beauty. Certainly a keeper. If you can do all of that with ten bucks worth of gear then I can surely do it with my higher priced tools. Thanks for sharing. BTW I saw what you did before you took your first bite of noodles. I learned that trick many years ago. Makes everything taste better. God Bless. Chief

Just started watching the old videos on this channel. I think a lot of people missed the point of this channel, teaching along with entertainment. Making the knife sheath and backpack would definitely not be needed to a point but it gives you two benefits. Keeps your mind busy from boredom and creates useful tools. Plus he is showing us something that may come in handy if you have to last longer than 24 hours and need to move. Good video on both aspects.

Thank you for the kind words! It's always difficult to know what folks are interested in when you do a video of this kind. No matter what you do, someone will always thing you should have done it differently and that's okay. That's what makes this challenge so interesting, to see what can be done on the cheap if you have a moderate level of skills. I enjoy the feedback even if some of it seems negative because it shows people are thinking and interacting with the video and with me. So again, thanks for watching and for the kind comment!

I searched dollar store camp challenge. I saw this one and said "oh this is one of my channels". I subbed you a couple months ago. I generally don't visit channels, I see something, if I subscribe I take it from there. Anyway, I enjoy watching these type videos, I've seen some good ones and I've seen some silly ones. This one however, is the best I have ever seen. What a great presentation. A well thought out demonstration of knowledge and skills. It is entertaining and helpful to others and true to the challenge. Good job. As a side note, I read the interaction, about giving thanks, between you and @Chiefkirk Outdoors. I don't think I will ever again forget to give thanks. I was brought to shame and thankfulness. I have many things to be thankful for.

Your tarp, laid out, then wrapped around all of the other gear, would be the pack, that ties to the frame with a diamond 0 hitch. The cordage could secure the knife sheath together with 3 or 4 loops. That would save many yards of valuable cordage. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

Hello, greetings from Southern Ohio. Yes, me too! Thoroughly enjoyed the video. Some people tend to think they know a lot about these type of adventures. I guess it's human nature but I hope everyone learned a little something (or a lot) from this video. I know I did. Like the dog bowl idea. I'm sure it's the best bowl in Dollar Tree. Was wondering if you were hearing a Big Foot tree knock at that 3:00 a.m., awakening. Just having some fun. I've also got a suggestion. I noticed the dog in the beginning. I know I take my canine with me everywhere possible. If a significant other isn't available, we could use our furry friend. Learned years ago that's where the saying 2 or 3 dog night came from. Meaning how cold the night becomes. Of course, if you have a chihuahua it might not work. Anyhow, Mike from OPP lead me here. Appreciate the shared knowledge & the time you took to educate us. Looking forward to upcoming videos.

I've watched a lot of people take this challenge and seen some great ideas and some dismal failures. The failures always come from trying to use the tools as something they are not. Then they break and are accused of being no good because they were only a dollar. I liked your choices and the way you used them. I also liked that you made chop sticks. I always wonder about that when I see people carving spoons and forks. Our Dollar tree always has a variety of LED flashlights with batteries that are really good but the Dollar stores are all different. I really think the challenge wold be better if the ten dollers were taken to the local good will or even yard sales. The kits would all be different and the choices would be fascinating, though lighter or matches would probably have to be allowed as a given since they would be hard to find at a good will.

Ten bucks at Dollar Tree can easily score you the finest Chinesium "10 C's of Survival", and I personally dont think you need any food for a 24hour period but its nice to have.

@@WayPointSurvival Thank you for the reply. You used duct tape on your shelter after you had made the 'sheath' so you certainly had tape left. And yes cardboard scabbards can be flimsy but it would have certainly lasted for the duration of your outing. Your log 'sheath' was probably good practice using those tools, and you certainly didn't need those resources for the short duration of your video, however in a longer term scenario I believe a different, less labor and resource intensive, design would be preferred. If not tape and cardboard then perhaps tape n sticks, a section of Reed, fire baked clay, cloth hardened with coal-pitch, etc. Even though I may disagree a little its still good to see people in the woods. :)

Thanks for responding. I also purposely didn't use the duct tape because after making the backpack straps, I planned ahead and wanted to have enough to use for the garbage bag shelter. There was, after all, only 30 feet of tape if I remember correctly. I used it all up taping the bags together. There wouldn't have been enough for a sheath anyway. Plus, I wanted to show that you could indeed do relatively more intensive bushcraft tasks with the cheap dollar store items.

He's in a lot of my videos, he likes to run around and make secret appearances when I don't notice him, lol.

Good drills and skills. Thanks for sharing. ATB. Nigel

Thank you, my friend!

Consider using more of the material around you. I think the matches were the best choice aside from the tarp. Nice video.
